Lux's Magic Penetration Rod
Chapter 422 【0418】 Lux’s calmness and confidence
Compared to Peter, who has been in the military for a long time and has an arrogant personality, Tiana is undoubtedly a more rational and calm person - according to Jarvan III's evaluation, Peter is a very good general, but Tiana is the one who has the ability to serve as an army. commander in chief.
Even if it is not on the battlefield, but in the turbulent political situation, Tiana is better able to grasp the key to the problem.
From Tiana's point of view, Peter's anxiety and even loss of composure were really caused by his love for his daughter. Even though the bastards in the Noble Council were shouting fiercely, the current situation was a mess.
The noble council is also afraid of the Illuminati and is anxious to push Lux to the stage to compete with Tariq. They do not want Lux to give up the challenge. The reason why they dare to press so hard is because Peter loves his daughter passionately and is loyal to her wholeheartedly. Jarvan III.
If Lux stood up at this time and said that she had admired the Illuminati for a long time, believe it or not, many of the most clamorous nobles would immediately come over to her with a stern look on her face, saying that everything could be discussed.
In other words, it was Peter's demands for loyalty and morality that were too high, which led those nobles with no bottom line to want to roast Lux on the fire, because good people should be pointed at guns.
In this case, reasoning is useless; a substantial threat must be demonstrated.
Of course, due to the royalist stance of the Crownguard family, this kind of display must be tempered to prevent Jarvan III from feeling threatened. Compared with those noisy and noisy bastard nobles, Jarvan III is the only one on this side. This is Tiana's main consideration.
For Tiana, her niece has gone through such a journey and has a good understanding of the folk world, and her strength is certainly worthy of belief. Under this situation, if she hopes that Lux can shoulder the burden of the Crown Guard family, banner, then she must have the ability to have a clear insight into the key issues in the political situation.
I'm afraid this kind of ability can't be taught by my silly elder brother.
Therefore, Tiana did not explain the whole story to Lux, but asked Lux in a test-like manner, asking her what she thought on this point.
Facing her aunt's inquiry, Lux did not ask Kalya immediately, but started thinking on her own.
Lux is not good at dealing with nobles, but this does not prevent her from understanding what the nobles are. Therefore, although she is not as thorough as Tiana on this issue, she can still taste a lot of subtle things. place.
Although she was at the center of the whirlpool, Lux, who had no intention of playing games with these insects at the political table and wanted to start things over again, was somewhat of a bystander. Therefore, she quickly realized what the noble council was doing. The main purpose of this gesture.
Thinking about this, Lux quickly showed a look of understanding.
Then, she quickly communicated with Kalya, and with Kalya's help, she made some words, and then she spoke calmly.
"Not all nobles uphold the noble conduct." Lux looked at her father who was still angry. "They thought that I could be bound by a false reputation, that I could be pushed ahead by them, and become a perfect flag to appear in the world. The maggot-like idea of covering up their ugliness in front of other people is naturally disgusting."
Peter nodded with deep understanding.
"However, father, don't worry, these insects are not worth worrying about." Lux continued, "Although the noble meeting is noisy, as long as His Majesty makes a decision, they can't really push out a single person to oppose it. Otherwise, whoever opposes it should just deal with Tariq’s threat.”
Peter seemed to understand something and blinked in surprise.
"Everything has a price. Even in the army, the contribution of the vanguard is much greater than that of the rear. If anyone insists on suppressing the Illuminati by setting up a noble model, then he can become that noble model." A smile appeared on Si's face, "As for the Art Support Association, I'm still a little shy. If anyone can, let him face the pressure of the Illuminati. I can definitely help him live forever."
Lux's words were very tactful, but the logic behind them was extremely clear - suppressing the Illuminati is not a matter of our Crownguard family, so don't think of pushing me out with such a tepid reward.
Being able to do something doesn't mean you have to do it.
Hearing this, Peter finally slapped his forehead - he was careless and confused. Today, he was so angry by those bastards in the Council of Nobles that he almost got into trouble!
That’s right, it’s not our family’s responsibility to deal with the Illuminati!
And hearing what Lux said, Tiana also showed a satisfied expression.
"That's very well said, Lux." Tiana glanced helplessly at Pete, whose face was filled with the words "my daughter is awesome", and then spoke unhurriedly, "As long as we grasp this point, those annoying people will A disgusting fly can only make a little noise - compared with the noble council, the most critical point in this matter lies with His Majesty."
"..."
Lux did not speak, but nodded understandingly.
Beside her, Peter looked confused.
"What does this have to do with Your Majesty?"
"You don't understand the key, but His Majesty does." Tiana explained with a smile, "But the idea you proposed is really not to His Majesty's liking, so the matter is stuck here."
"How come His Majesty is not willing to deal with the Illuminati - wait, you are saying that His Majesty does not want Lux to hold a position of real power?"
"That's right." Tiana looked at her brother who had just understood, and couldn't help but stretched out her hand to rub her temples, "The Crown Guard family is not the Bouvier family with a small population. Even if you retire now, the Crown Guard family will The power we hold is still too heavy for all of Demacia."
"So His Majesty hopes that Lux and the Crownguard family will separate?!" Peter's tone finally brought a hint of disbelief, "This...isn't it right?"
"Very good." Looking at her father's appearance, Lux felt a little helpless. "Because I left Demacia, my family received a lot of compensation. Now that I'm back, if I'm in a high position again, There will be a clear imbalance in Demacia."
"Actually, there is another way to solve this problem." Tiana looked at Lux with admiration, "The current prince has not yet married, if our Lux——"
"Don't even think about it." Lux interrupted Tiana neatly, "This is impossible."
"That's true." Tiana raised her eyebrows helplessly, "That is His Royal Highness after all."
"So, tomorrow I will hope to ask Your Majesty for a new fiefdom." Lux simply came up with her plan, "A land worthy of the status of a summit climber."
"It's hard to find land of this size." When talking about this topic, Tiana was also a little embarrassed. "There is almost no land available for enfeoffment in Demacia. The territory directly under the royal family is so small that it is absolutely impossible to divide it again. One piece for you, so our best way is to find a soft persimmon..."
"No need to bother." Lux waved her hand, "As far as I know, there are a lot of lands without lords in the northern part of Demacia, near the border!"
"Northern border?" x3
Hearing Lux's request for a piece of land on the northern border, even Ogesha, who had been silent beside her, couldn't help but take a breath of air.
"This is no joke!" Tiana said in a serious tone, "Although the nobles' fiefdoms have benefits, they must also bear the responsibility of paying taxes and contributions. The northern border is located on a plateau and has insufficient products. The lord will soon be unable to make ends meet - so many people are watching you, and if you don't pay enough taxes, it will be trouble!"
"That's right, that's right!" Peter nodded after thinking about it, "Our family has such a large fiefdom, mainly because most of the fiefdoms are located in the north and are not rich in products, such as those in the core of the kingdom. The fiefdoms of Gendel and Tobitsia are smaller than the other, but they are richer than the other!"
"I know." Lux nodded, "But I am special after all - the North is a hard and cold place for ordinary people, but for me... I am actually fine."
"You don't have to sacrifice yourself so hard." Tiana shook her head helplessly, "Although it has been criticized by many people to temporarily deal with a soft persimmon and give you the fiefdom, the procedure is also reasonable and legal."
"After all, I am different from ordinary nobles." Lux opened her right hand, and a ball of light danced gently in her palm. "As a climber, although my identity as a mage is not a problem, I have always appeared in front of everyone. In front of us, after all, we look at each other and hate each other."
"You are already a mountaineer, why should mountaineers care about this!" Ogesha grabbed Lux's other hand, "Silly girl, don't be like this."
"That's right!" Peter also said, "Although the military is not like a noble council, it still has a lot of disadvantages. The worst thing is to select a few bastards and deprive them of their territory. Go to the northern border... that's not going to happen."
"This can be regarded as convenient for myself." Hearing this, Lux dispersed the light in her palms and held her mother with both hands. "The border is difficult to maintain. In addition to the unbearable climate, it is also mainly due to insufficient population, and the kingdom is infected with demons. There are a lot of them, so it’s better for me to choose a border fiefdom as their new home, so as to save the demon searchers the trouble and move them abroad——"
"Not every demon dyer has your talent!" Peter and Ogesha were already stunned, and Tiana simply stood up. "If magic is out of control, it will inevitably lead to disaster. You can afford the price. ?"
"Of course I can bear it." Lux heard this, a bright smile bloomed on her face, and she nodded confidently, "Don't forget, I am a mountain climber - I am professional in magic."
